RTM would not have happened without Scott. A resounding win for Bay Area transit!
In addition to our win in the race for Congress — thank you, San Francisco! — we had another huge win Tuesday, for public transportation with the passage of Prop RTM.
We worked in coalition for 3 years to pass the law authorizing Prop RTM and worked hard to pass the measure at the ballot.
In combination with Prop H, we’ve now stabilized Muni, BART, and Caltrain and created the foundation to make our local and regional transit systems stronger, safer, and more reliable for the future.
Thank you to everyone who made this happen. I’ll be taking this focus on transit to Congress. We need more transit, and we’re going to make it happen.

Bay Area election results: Voters have approved Proposition RTM — the Regional Transit Measure — which projects to raise $1 billion annually to bolster public transportation in five counties and serve as a crucial lifeline for BART, Muni, Caltrain and AC Transit.

“The Regional Transit Measure will dramatically improve VTA service to offer faster, more frequent service and improved efficiency to bring back riders and take more cars off the roads.”

Good explainer in the @mercnews about what’s at stake for transit in the Bay Area this election.
The Bay Area’s four largest systems are collectively facing upward of an $800 million annual deficit next year. mercurynews.com/2026/09/20/t…

Whether or not you ever ride public transit, it’s essential for the future of the Bay Area. This November, vote YES on Measure RTM to protect, sustain, and transform public transit!

We must pass the @Connect_BayArea regional transit funding measure to stabilize BART, Muni, Caltrain, and AC Transit and ensure a bright transit future for San Francisco and the Bay Area. We worked for three years to pass the law authorizing this regional ballot measure. Let’s get it done.

Dolly Parton spent decades quietly funding band uniforms and instruments at Black high schools across the South - never once putting her name on it. No headlines, no fanfare — just help, given because it was needed.
Rhinestones on the outside, gold on the inside. 💛

Public transit is an essential service, but every year it seems like transit funding is on the chopping block. I’m sick of playing defense — we need to fully fund Muni, BART, Caltrain, and other systems to expand access to transit and deliver faster, cleaner, more reliable service.

The people who make San Francisco run rely on Muni and BART every day. Yet these systems have been underfunded at the state and federal levels for far too long. We need strong Muni and BART — that’s why we put the @Connect_BayArea transit funding measure on the ballot, and why in Congress, I’ll fight for more funding to not just save transit, but make it run faster and better than ever.
Thank you for your leadership on this Councilmember! I’ll see you there!
Proud to be co-hosting this summer fundraiser to save public transit in the Bay Area with @Connect_BayArea, @seamlessbayarea, and @TransbayC, taking place Wednesday July 22 at 5:30 in Palo Alto — DM to be added to the guest list!
